Involve yourself in a new dimension: Ohashiatsu® and Zen 
Immerse yourself in the study of Ohashiatsu in the spiritual atmosphere of Dai Bosatsu Zendo, a Zen Buddhist monastery in the Catskill Mountains. The monastery is set amidst a maple forest on a large estate with a pristine lake and wildlife. Ohashi’s Beginning I, Intermediate I and Advanced I students can spend 8 days studying Ohashiatsu, and meditating daily in the monastery, swimming and rowing in the lake and eating delicious vegetarian meals served and eaten in silence in traditional Zen fashion. The last night at the Zendo is “talent night”, a truly hilarious evening, where even the monks join in with mini-plays and songs.
We urge you to share in our summer retreat at Dai Bosatsu Zendo. Don’t miss this chance for a holistic, spiritual and natural experience. With respect for the environment, class size is limited at the Zendo and these classes fill up very quickly. Reserve your space now so you can be part of this unique Ohashiatsu experience.
